Digital Booklet

"... a disc full of remarkable violin playing ... presents a powerful, individual view of the music."
- Gramophone
"Zehetmair has the flamboyance required ... he inhabits these pieces naturally, seeking out the most expressive nuances of touch and tempo in each bar of the music."
- The Independent
"... he sounds close up, with only enough reverberation to keep his sound humidified ... everyone, from performers, students and violin aficionados to general collectors, should take note. Strongly recommended."
- Fanfare
"Four Stars ... Zehetmair employs an astonishing dynamic range, articulated by a glittering array of lifted and legato bow strokes that tickles both the ear and the imagination ... a white knuckle ride from beginning to end."
- BBC Music Magazine
Austrian violinist and conductor Thomas Zehetmair presents this critically-praised modern interpretation of Paganini's challenging 24 Caprices, recorded in 2007 amid the legendary acoustics of the St. Gerold monastery in Austria.
